The More You Gno 11: Introducing gnobro

As we're gearing up toward the mainnet launch, we haven't forgotten to give some love to minor features that makes everyone's lives easier. This time the spotlight's on gnobro.

Gno Core Updates

gnobro is Live

What's gnobro, you say? Simply put, it's a terminal based realm browser you can use to explore realms and improve the development experience on 'gnodev'. See it in action↗.

Changelog

• We've updated the release CI and fixed issues↗ with go-releaser. Now all of the tools in the monorepo are released properly, with accompanying artifacts.
• Added support for smooth .md file rendering in gnoweb, ahead of our plans to work on gnoweb 2.0. This allows packages that have READMEs and other documentation to render easily in gnoweb.
• Slew of GnoVM fixes, increasing stability
  • Type comparison fix↗
  • Cyclic references in type declarations↗
  • Handling non-call expression valuedecl values↗
  • And more pending reviews!
• We've added back coverage support (CodeCov) for txtar tests↗, which make up a majority of our integration testing suite. The txtar tests for the gnovm package added an additional 5% coverage. We are currently assessing other packages that suffer from bad txtar coverage.
• We've added support for more robust stack traces for Gno-code panics↗, providing a much better UX for the developer. You no longer need to dig through a 5k line log output to figure out what panicked in your Gno code; you'll see the exception stack trace instead.
• Variable config command help output is drastically improved↗. In the past you'd need to know exactly what the configuration looks like before modifying or viewing the values. Now these values are conveniently present in the command help output.
• Last, but not least: let's welcome our new R&D Go Engineer, Antoine↗. He'll help us scale core components for gno and beyond!
